If that thing is worth a £2000 starting bid in that condition , then how much d'ya reckon my 3.0 Ghia might be worth if I was to consider putting it up for sale ?

| I concur. I've got a friend that has a really lovely Ghia Coupe. It has about 110k miles on it but no rust after a re-furb about 6 years ago. Could get £3k for it, in fact he couldn't even sell it! He still has it in storage now, and of course it will now need a bit of work mechanically to get it back on the road. He's not selling though, been put off!

After much deliberation & due to a mixture of my recent knee operation (still recovering) & dodgy lower back, coupled with a lack of enthusiasm (main reason to be honest) & possible insanity, I've decided to sell my MK1 Granny as soon as I get it MOT'd It'll be hard to see it go, but after 15 years of ownership, I think it's time that someone took it off my hands & gave it a new lease of life (it's been sitting outside my house with a cover on for the last 2 years) If anyone is interested or knows anyone that is interested, then you can PM me with a contact number & I will get back to you. It'll probably be going on Ebay within the next month

I sold my MK1 Granada yesterday .....I got close to what I wanted for it though It's being picked up on Saturday by a transport company & being low-loaded 150 miles up the road to Birmingham. The guy that's bought it used run the MK1 owners club.....so it's going to a good home
